pring at the head of fifteen hundred men — as good and true as ever shouldered musket or "bit," cartridge. Col. James R. Chalmers now commands the First Mississippi at Washington. Col. Henry D. Clayton, of the First Alabama, is also in the field for a reorganization of his regiment, on whose banner is inscribed the ever-memorable 22d and 23d November, 1861. Two companies of this regiment go out of service on the 17th of January, two on the 19th of February, and the whole corps on the 20th of March. I understand many of the officers, (among them Lieut.Col. Steadman,) as well as the men, intend going in for the war, and keeping up the organization of the First. It is the oldest corps in the Confederate service, and it is to be hoped the pride of Alabama will not permit it to exist in name only. The frigate Niagara left last night, and has not yet returned. Maybe she is on a visit to Ship Island, which bids fair to be as notorious a place as Hatteras Inlet or Hilton Head.

Adopted. Mr. Carpenter offered a bill on authorizing County Courts of Alleghany county to impose a tax upon dogs. Mr. James moved to amend the bill by extending its provisions to Botetourt. Adopted, and the bill ordered to its engrossment. A bill was called up providing that any Senator or Delegate who shall, without the consent of the House of which he is a member, absent himself from its deliberations, he shall be deemed guilty of a breach of his privilege, and that
Telegraphic dispatches. The following dispatches from the West were received last Friday night, too late for insertion in Saturday's paper: Memphis, March 20.--The enemy commenced shelling the works at Island No.10, at long distance, on Saturday, the 15th, which was kept up during that day and the succeeding one (Sunday.) On Monday, eight gunboats and six mortars were brought down, when the attack was again renewed. Three gunboats were lashed together, and made a desperate attack on Capt. Buckner's Battery. Lieut. Clarke, of Captain Buckner's battery, was killed. No others The battery sustained considerable injury during the four days bombardment. One of the enemy's gunboats was disabled and towed back on Monday. The other boats were struck, but the extent of damage done is not known. Our troops conducted themselves with great spirit and resolution. The river is falling slowly at the Island. Memphis, March 21. --A special dispa
rs, among them Lieut. Col. Chardle, of the 80th Illinois, and Howling, of the 9th Iowa, and about 80 other officers. Our army fell back, having parted from the trains. We captured a large amount of commissary supplies, upon which the whole army subsisted one night. Next morning before we fell back we destroyed 300 acres of flour and a large quantity of bacon and other stores. The cause of Arkansas is to be fought over. Affairs on the Mississippi. The Memphis Appeal, of March 20th, furnishes the following: We learn that a skirmish occurred Tuesday morning between our gunboats and a shore battery of the enemy, erected during the preceding night, nearly opposite to Tiptonville. On discovering that the enemy had been at work on the west bank, our gunboats got up steam early in the morning and went out to attack them. The enemy had placed three twenty-four- pounder rifle guns in position, for the purpose of cutting off our communication at Tiptonville, where

The deliverance of Missouri. --A correspondent of the Memphis Avalanche writes from Jacksonport, Ark.,March 20th, as follows: Gen. Van-Dorn will soon have organized a heavy column to advance in Southeast Missouri, which, besides the column already in the Southwest, under the gallant Price, will make two armies of deliverance for Missouri. Suppose Price should push his column to the Missouri river, sweep down that stream and meet around St. Louis, another column under Van Dorn and Jeff. Thompson, which will bag Pope at New Madrid, and; passing up the Mississippi river, units with Price for the deliverance of St. Louis Wouldn't that be Napoleonic! Well, the world may use it, though your correspondent may not survive the battles to be fought to achieve this result. All this is whispered in your ears. The Arkansas; Louisiana, and Texas boys, are responding most promptly to the late requisition. They all mourn the fall of the brave McCulloch and the chivalrous McIntos
